Our client is an early-stage enterprise AI startup building intelligent automation systems for the insurance industry.
The company is transforming one of the largest and most operationally inefficient sectors globally by replacing manual, error-prone insurance workflows with AI-native systems.
Backed by Y Combinator with one of the largest recent insurtech seed rounds, the company has already secured a pilot with a top-10 U.S. insurance carrier that could convert into a significant seven-figure enterprise contract.
The founding team brings deep technical and domain expertise, including prior startup exits and experience scaling high-growth engineering organizations.
With only a few engineers on the team today, this is a rare opportunity to join as an early foundational technical hire and shape both product and engineering culture from day one.
